Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) have become very popular in recent years. These systems provide a contemporary layer of automation named automatic object location detection. Location measurements involve the transmission and reception of signals between hardware components of a system. A RTLS consists of at least two separate hardware components:...

Seamless computing and service sharing in community networks have been gaining momentum due to the emerging technology of community network micro-clouds (CNMCs). However, running services in CNMCs can face enormous challenges such as the dynamic nature of micro-clouds, limited capacity of nodes and links, asymmetric quality of wireless links for se...
In densely deployed wireless local area network (WLAN) environments, the arbitrary deployment of WLAN access points (APs) can cause serious cell overlaps among APs. In such situations, the ability to realize adaptable coverage using transmission power control (TPC) is effective for improving the area spectral efficiency. Meanwhile, it should be gua...
This paper introduces a new mobility control method for surveillance applications of wireless sensor and actor networks. The proposed method is based on virtual electrostatic forces which act on actors to coordinate their movements. The definition of virtual forces is inspired by Coulomb?s law from physics. Each actor calculates the virtual forces...
The demand for oil is growing steadily from emerging and developing economies while oil field discoveries continue to decline. Therefore the gap between demand and supply will increase with time. Subsurface Exploration deals with extracting valuable hydrocarbons from oil wells. Due to its hazardous nature, it’s one of the most difficult fields to c...

... Then for each node, the strength of signal among its neighborhood nodes is calculated. The RSSI strength is produced through a modified site survey algorithm based on the obstacles between the node and the losses their materials causes to the signals send [14]. ...
The proposed work describes an integrated advanced surveillance system for monitoring and recording environmental data (temperature, humidity, dust, smoke, etc) and all movement of people and specific categories of equipment (armor, vehicles, etc) within a specific under surveillance area. The system covers buildings with several floors and basement areas, open areas, gates, and generally areas with authorized access only, which they may be within a building or in independent areas. The purpose of the proposed work is to upgrade the safety in a military area by covering all the internal, external and the perimeter areas overcoming the shortcomings of GPS in indoor areas and the high cost of camera surveillance systems. The main objective of this project is both the security of the personnel who is present in this area and at the same time the safety of certain items (weapons, armor, ammunition, vehicles, etc.) that need special attention utilizing internet technology and specialized equipment to detect motion, positioning, heartbeats and environmental parameters (temperature, humidity, smoke, etc).
